That depends A LOT on where the coin was minted. If there is no mint mark under the wreath on the back, it was made in Philadelphia. These are relatively common; retail is about $2 if well-worn, up to $17 if almost uncirculated. HOWEVER, if there is a tiny "S" the coin came from the San Francisco mint and is much rarer. Values for the same range of conditions are $425 to $630. If you have a 1909-S, you'll need to have it authenticated because that issue has been counterfeited.
Assuming the coin is circulated, the 1909-S is a key-date coin for the series. For an accurate assessment of value the coin needs to be seen and graded. Most coins show a lot of wear. In general retail values for low grade coins are $500.00-$600.00, better grade are $690.00-$840.00 and coins showing almost no wear run from $880.00-$960.00. Values are a market average and only for coins in collectible condition, coins that are bent, corroded, scratched, used as jewelery or have been cleaned have far less value if any to a collector or dealer.
